If he is then it cuts down JS options unless you introduce Morrison into the Team, where did you hear that JCS is not playing tomorrow??, suggests he has gotten worse since sitting on the bench on Saturday!!! |

Yep he is.....hence the 27 matches he played for the Saints last season in the top league in the world. He was one of the best players on the park on Saturday and when I have seen him play he mostly looks a most decent player. Big asset for the Team the way he get forward much of the time and delivers the ball excellently, 'top dollar' left foot too.
Not sure how you know what his attitude was like and it has now improved, etc, etc. What has Saints were rubbish last season got to do with it??
As I said elsewhere, he is a very decent left back and arguably one of the best in the Championship, but hey, if you want to 'knock him', its up to you but you are well wrong!!! |

I have seen WH & Boro......imho Saints are far better. Doesn't mean they will finish higher just yet because they need to 'do the bis' when there are real pressures, it is minimal atm until we get closer to the 'business end' of the season.. |

Manning is too good for QPR.....a proper LB & a Premiership player. I do not understand why he gets abuse from QPR fans. He left to earn a decent wage, play some proper football & provide for his family - noe of which QPR could provide. I, just, do not get why players get abused on this MB. |

We should not be taking chances with JCS or any other player unless the fitness team &, just as importantly, the player himself is confident that the injury is 'sorted'. It is not just the fitness team. [Post edited 2 Nov 9:56]

I have no knowledge of the back room fitness team so I am unable to comment but I am surprised by the amount of adverse comments about them &, despite the top man being best mates with Nourry, he is still here........BUT i do not know.
What is for sure, we have a squad good enough to get close this season. |

Regarding 'warming-up'.......half time is just a few minutes to move around and keep warm for the subs. Knock a few balls around. Unless they have been told that they are entering the field of play and then they should go through a full warm up session, probably with the trainers. There is no point in doing a full warm up exercises then go and sit down for 10/15/20 minutes. The players, who are professional footballers, should know if they have warmed up & done loosening exercises, they have a responsibility to ensure that they are ready. |

Nourry has given the Manager the tools to get the job done, its down to JS & his coaching staff plus the players and with a 'helping hand' from us the supporters to ensure the job is done. The job done imho is a play-off position. |

If Vale is in the starting line up then I need to know why because he is a very average inconsistent player who is getting far too much game time. There will be changes - 100%. Cirkin must start (do not understand why he hasn't been selected after his suspension), if JCS is fit for the bench then he should be starting, (if he isn't fully fit, injury wise, then do not pick him at all), move Edwards forward to add defensive qualities in midfield. Play Chair if he is fit.
Burnley may be struggling but I expect a very difficult game but winnable, likewise Lincoln on Saturday. |

If you are on the bench then you are fit to play.......I think it was a hamstring injury at Saints but not sure what his previous injury was. |

Sadly, Saints were far too good for us......their forward play was very good indeed, a danger most of the time. |

And I fail to see why Vale gets soooooo much game time.......worst QPR player on the pitch last week in a very good win & pretty poor yesterday as well. What am I missing about this individual & what does JS see in him??
I do not believe that he will be starting again v Burnley. |

I thought that JS would pick the same side & very similar line up & very similar tactics.....why would you when the Team has just beaten top of the league in Swansea. Loose like we did yesterday and everyone, and I mean everyone, would be questioning the Manager.
However, yesterday we were playing a very decent team in Southampton and we were playing away from home. Perhaps playing the same line up would be OK but tactically, with two very forward thinking players up front, was not a good idea. I am not a 'fan' of Vale so I would probably of played Smyth wide (giving Boy some assistance) & replaced Vale with JCS and moving Edwards from CB to sit in front of the back 4 giving us a far more cover for the defence. |

Yes took his goal very well indeed.....BUT watch his overall performance and, specifically, the goal that we conceded from a Saints corner.
He was very average today and nowhere near the level he was last week. |

Edwards could be a big asset today, not only on the pitch but also the knowledge that he has about Saints, we will see.
Big test for us......need to start very well indeed. |

Fantastic player......deserves whatever he gets, proper person. Kids wanting to be a good pro footballer and a good man generally should watch him and behave accordingly.
I remember watching him play here for Spurs in an FA cup tie a few years ago, got a lot of grief from some R's fans but as good as stuck his fingers up when he scored, if I recall rightly, a neat header and got a second as well.
I am very pleased for him. |

Time to move on boys, he was very good against Swansea but the previous games that he has played this season and the back end of last season has been very average indeed, very poor on many occasions.
Lets see if he can have another good game, starting with Southampton on Saturday. |

That's what happens now mate, players/agents run it. That is why & 'how come' Kolli is still here!!!
We do need to have a top season though & have some funds to pay for him &, most importantly, he wants to become a Ranger.. |
